 Enhancement WP Core idea:

 In the standard WP - Customizer - CSS control field is possible to add
 custom: CSS, JavaScript and also PHP code. This feature is great but also
 dangerous for like database injection scripts for hacking sites.

 Is it possible to make this CSS control field more secure to prevent
 executing of hack scripts at some way? Maybe with some regular expressions
 or with realtime validations code of the input before saving and updating
 the input code.
